Indeed, and I think we all would like to switch away from CVS.   
However, NetBSD is a very large source tree, and most of the current  
DVCS tools (and centralized ones too!) do not scale well to handle  
it.  If someone experimented with the NetBSD tree in multiple  
systems, did some benchmarks, etc. etc. we'd draw some conclusions  
and make the switch, I guess ;-)
